cnn meteorologist chad myers is tracking this asteroid for us. chad, we're talking pretty short distance, relatively speaking, when it comes to space. >> yeah, only 14,000 miles. and that's just a little more than the old cars had for a warranty, a 12,000 mile warranty. so it's going to be very close. it's not going to hit the earth. we already know that. but what it's going to do, wolf, it's actually going to come between where our satellites are, even the ones that take pictures for the weather and the gps satellites, fly right by the earth, and right out the other side. it could impact satellites two different times, but that's unlike. the satellites are very small and this thing is not very big at all. comparatively, we don't want to get hit by it. it's bigger than two train cars put together, it weighs an awful lot, it would do a lot of damage if it did hit, but so far right now, it is not going to hit here. february 15th is its closest approach. you would think, can i look at it? probably not without a telescope or a really good pair of bin
